I was told today by my dealer that I should expect my SLK55 in the third week of November! He said he had delivered two SLK350s so far and my SLK55 is the first one in this Province. The funny thing is that there are no brochures for the SLK yet because they have to print them in French as well. Damn French!

Thanks! But I am not sure about the lucky part. You know, first year production problems, small glitches (like the antenna and the wind blocker), the eventual replacement of this old three valve V8... May be your waiting will not totally sux after all! But I doubt you will get the new four valve V8 (5.7L? 450hp?). I think that engine is a good three years away.



I got the silver color. That is the only color that goes with the black/berry red interior. Vancouver Dealer



I am not going to modify my car because if anything goes wrong MB Canada will not cover it under warranty. I have had REALLY bad experiences with my C36!

mine is due early next year so i dont think anything will really change by then.
